| | TAXI FAQs: Promotion: How To Present Your Demo Tape |
 | | If the listener has a limited time to listen, which is usually the case, the tendency is to listen to a tape/CD they know they can complete. |  | | They're good to have at the point where a producer wants to record your song and you want to be sure he/she has the correct melody, but since the current copyright law permits tapes/CDs to be sent for copyright registration, their importance has diminished. |  | | Always cue your tape to the beginning of the first song. |

 | | The tape was the work of songwriter Duritz and guitarist Dave Bryson, who owns Dancing Dog Studio, a 16-track facility in Emeryville, where the producer has been polishing demo tapes by local bands for more than 10 years. |  | | With a dozen songs, on the cassette, the tape was about for times as long as most demos, which usually are trimmed to three or four songs- music-buisness professionals have limited attention spans. |  | | "It was the single best demo tape I've ever heard in my life," said Allen Lenard, who agreed to represent the group in its search for a record deal. |

| | #14 Reviews [Demo tapes/7" EPs] |
 | | The sound of this demo is very obscure, it seems that it was recorded in a rehearsal room, thus the songs can hardly win the sympathy of the listeners. |  | | The new tape "In the Abyss of Dreams..." was recorded with a different singer, is heavier and, at the same time, better than the previous demo. |  | | Simple song structures, catchy refrains and melodic guitar parts are the trademarks of this album on tape, which makes very professional impression. |

 | | Each demo tape should have 2-3 songs that adequately display the ability and sound of the group or act. |  | | The more time and effort that is put into a demo tape the better it sounds and the better the chance of that group getting to play in Battle of the Bands and potentially in Spring Fling. |  | | There are a lot of demo submissions and not that much time to listen to each one. |
